Unbelievable but a Tropical disturbance is predicted to move from the Gulf of Campeche into the Gulf of Mexico and TX/La next week, and TS/Hurricane Irma is moving due West and may be in the Gulf the week after that. Be prepared

looks to already be a category 4, headed in a somewhat straight line for Miami. Florida governor just declared state of emergency, as has Puerto Rico.Don't think they know if it veers north and runs up the East coast or goes over Southern Florida and hits the gulf coast states.

We really need to start controlling the weather over the next 20-50 years

Watching Irma pretty close. Hoping it doesn't get into the gulf then move north. We haven't had a direct hit here in Panama City in a long time. Let's pray she takes a hard turn and misses us all. The track they have it taking they say there is nothing to slow it down and she may even get stronger.

My dear friend, only God controls the weather.

"Job 37:9 "Out of the south comes the storm, And out of the north the cold. 10 "From the breath of God ice is made, And the expanse of the waters is frozen. 11 "Also with moisture He loads the thick cloud; He disperses the cloud of His lightning. 12 "It changes direction, turning around by His guidance, That it may do whatever He commands it On the face of the inhabited earth. 13 "Whether for correction, or for His world, Or for lovingkindness, He causes it to happen. 14 "Listen to this, O Job, Stand and consider the wonders of God."

But if the property is “partially unusable” because of a disaster, a tenant may only get a reduction in rent determined by a county or district court.

New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin signed a similar order in 2005 amid the destruction from Hurricane Katrina allowing the seizure of private weapons, which the NRA opposed in a federal court. Congress later passed a bill, supported by the NRA and signed by President George W. Bush, banning future seizures of weapons during emergencies. ..."The NRA is prepared to pursue legal action to halt Gov. Mapp's dangerous and unconstitutional order."
